Asda Rewards 5p Off Fuel Offer: How to Get the Discount

Asda has brought back its 5p-per-litre fuel offer for Asda Rewards users, meaning you can save money on a fill-up after completing a qualifying grocery shop.

Spend £40 or more in one in-store transaction between the 23rd of September and the 14th of October and a 5p-per-litre fuel coupon will be added to your Asda Rewards app. You can then use that coupon once at a participating Asda or Asda Express fuel site until the 31st of October.

Asda says the offer is available at 262 participating fuel sites, and a typical 60-litre fill would save £3. The supplied Asda press material confirms the same dates, spend requirement and 5p-per-litre saving.

How the Asda 5p fuel offer works

The Asda 5p fuel offer works like this: spend £40 or more in a single in-store transaction between the 23rd of September and the 14th of October, scan your Asda Rewards app during the shop, and the fuel coupon will be added to your account.

That coupon gives you 5p off every litre of fuel on one purchase and can be used until the 31st of October at a participating Asda or Asda Express site selling Asda-branded fuel.

The coupon applies to all fuel types, with a maximum of 99 litres in one transaction.

How much could you save?

Every litre you buy saves you 5p, so a 40-litre fill would save you £2, a 50-litre fill would save you £2.50, and a 60-litre fill would save you £3.

If you used the full 99-litre maximum allowed under the current terms, the maximum possible saving would be £4.95.

If you already shop at Asda, this is a good opportunity to save a bit more on fuel without changing anything you were planning to do anyway. If travelling to your nearest Asda means going out of your way, or your normal supermarket works out noticeably cheaper for the same shop, then the overall saving may not be as good as it first appears.

The same applies to fuel prices. If a nearby filling station is already several pence cheaper per litre than Asda, then the 5p discount may not automatically make Asda the cheapest place to fill up.

Luckily, you can check that before making an unnecessary journey. The easiest option is to use a fuel-finding app or comparison tool to see which petrol stations near you currently have the lowest prices.

If you already use JamDoughnut, there is a Fuel Finder built into the app as well. Open the Local Offers section and use the Fuel Finder tab on the right-hand side, and it will show you nearby petrol stations and their current prices, which makes it much easier to see whether Asda still works out cheapest after the 5p-per-litre discount.

How do you get the fuel coupon?

You need to spend £40 or more in one in-store Asda transaction during the qualifying period and scan your Asda Rewards app when you shop.

Once the qualifying transaction has been completed, the fuel coupon is automatically added to the Rewards app.

You don't need to print anything or keep a paper voucher, because the coupon stays in the app until you use it or it expires.

Can you use Asda Rewards at the petrol station?

Yes, for this offer you use the Asda Rewards app when you redeem the fuel coupon.

At the participating petrol station, scan your Rewards barcode followed by the fuel coupon at the checkout or pump. The terms also state that you can't use fuel cards or petrol cards alongside the offer.

This is different from simply scanning your Rewards account and earning normal Cashpot money on fuel, because the saving comes from a specific 5p-per-litre coupon earned through the qualifying grocery shop.

Does an online Asda shop qualify?

No. The current 5p fuel promotion requires the £40 qualifying spend to be made in-store.

That's an important distinction if you usually use Asda home delivery or Click & Collect, because spending £40 online will not qualify you for this fuel coupon.

If you normally shop online and would need to change your routine to get the voucher, I would only do that if the overall saving still makes sense for you.

Which Asda petrol stations are taking part?

Asda has 262 participating Asda and Asda Express sites selling Asda-branded fuel, and it's worth checking the participating-store list in the Rewards app or on the Asda website before making a special trip, because not every filling station is necessarily included.

If you have to drive several miles out of your way to save £2 or £3, the extra fuel you use getting there can start eating into the savings fairly quickly.

When does the Asda fuel offer end?

The qualifying grocery spend runs from the 23rd of September until the 14th of October.

You can then use the fuel coupon until the 31st of October, giving you a little longer to redeem it after the qualifying shopping period ends.

I would still use it as part of your normal fuel routine rather than leaving it sitting in the app until the last few days and risking it expiring.

Can you use the fuel coupon more than once?

Each coupon can be used on one fuel purchase.

Asda describes it as redeemable on a single fuel transaction, so once you have used the coupon, that particular voucher is finished.

If your Rewards app shows another qualifying opportunity after a further £40 shop, follow whatever terms are shown there at the time rather than assuming every £40 transaction will automatically generate another coupon.

Can you get more than one coupon in a household?

If two people in the same household have separate Asda Rewards accounts and the offer is available to both, then each person may be able to qualify separately by completing their own eligible shop.

I wouldn't split or increase your grocery spending to chase extra fuel coupons, though. If you were going to make those purchases anyway, then fine, but spending another £40 to get a voucher that may save £2 or £3 would obviously work against the whole reason for using the deal.

Can new Asda Rewards members get the fuel offer?

No. This promotion is only available to existing registered Asda Rewards customers who joined before the offer started.

So if you’re not already an Asda Rewards member and were thinking about signing up now to get the 5p-per-litre fuel deal, unfortunately you won’t qualify for this one.

The offer is aimed at customers who were already registered before the promotion began, so creating a new Rewards account after the start date won’t unlock the fuel coupon.

Is the Asda 5p fuel offer a good deal?

If you already shop at Asda and there is a participating fuel site nearby, then yes, it is a useful extra saving.

A 60-litre fill saves £3, which isn't enormous on its own, but if you were going to do the £40 grocery shop and the fuel purchase anyway, it is extra money left in your pocket.

It becomes less attractive if you have to change supermarkets, drive further than usual, or pay more for your shopping to qualify. The same applies to the fuel itself; always compare the final pump price after the 5p discount rather than assuming Asda will automatically be cheapest.

Can you combine the Asda fuel offer with cashback?

Potentially, yes, and this is where you may be able to get a bit more value from the same £40 shop.

For an in-store Asda grocery shop, I would use a gift-card cashback service such as JamDoughnut, where you can earn cashback by buying the gift card through the service and then using it to pay for the qualifying shop.

Traditional cashback services such as TopCashback, Quidco and Rakuten can also have supermarket offers. Still, these are often aimed at online shopping, which won't help with a promotion that requires an in-store £40 spend, so stick with a gift card cashback service for now.

Is the Asda Rewards fuel discount worth using?

If you already shop at Asda and you need fuel, I would absolutely use it, as you are getting 5p off every litre on a purchase you were likely to make anyway. Once the qualifying shop has been completed, the coupon is added to the app without you having to do much more than remember to use it when you fill up (which I admit to having forgotten to do when Tesco were running their fuel promotion recently, which was annoying! )

If Asda isn't somewhere you normally shop, or getting there costs you more time, fuel, or higher grocery prices than you would normally pay, the saving may not justify changing your plans.

Used in the right circumstances, though, it is a decent extra discount on two things most households already spend money on: groceries and fuel, and with fuel having shot up in price over the last few weeks, it really helps!
